Dealing with 1000 digit numbers

[QUOTE="Snowmachine, post: 6044482, member: 648671"] Hi, Mostly i work with Octave / Matlab but i am trying to get into python also. Lately i have a couple problems where my numbers can't be represented in binary64 or float64 default format because they exceed the max of 1.8x10^308. Is there a common way people deal with this (without toolkits)? Similarly i have some problems where i need more than 15 digits of precision after the decimal and sometimes this exceeds the default precision. For example if i specify "precision", 56 on [1/3] the 0.(3) repeating 3s eventualy turn into non-3s which is a digital artifact. Any suggestions or workarounds to these problems in matlab/octave or python? (Without toolkit$?) I feel like there may be something basic I am missing because it seems like this should be straightforward. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
